  1. This is probably the best snap I have of him, taken at the end of this Spring. Most are white blob dots because of the distance and my camera on my phone isn't the best. It's officially confirmed. We have now seen him at less than 10 feet (standing next to the road when we were passing) and he is male and has the 6 inch button starter antlers. His antlers are white as well, just a slightly darker kind of eggshell white. The way his coat reflects light he always has an internal glow about him. Most sightings are at night in this hay field across from our property. I drive my son to work and this area is chocker block full of deer.
  2. That woman on the top should have NEVER approved that photo to be posted. It's just horrid.
  3. People really need to look at their whole photo before posting for anything unusual. The stink eye from the guy behind them is very off putting for their "lovey dovey" posting.
  4. Janelle is suffering from lack of purpose. Back in Utah she worked and was a key player in making ends meet. She was very lucky to never worry about her kids because they were well cared for by home mom Christine, surrounded by siblings. Janelle didn't have to be bothered with a husband but for every couple of days and her and Kody were more buddies and financial partners of their "family organization" The study to get her real estate license was good for her, but she doesn't have the personality or drive to actually run her own agency. She is a "back of the house" kind of person. Can follow orders and make things work as long as she doesn't have to deal with people face to face. She has always talked about liking the big family aspect, but she only likes to be the fly on the wall and observe vs. being up front and entertaining like show boat husband Kody and show off Christine. I have always thought that the "Strive" thing was all Kody's idea. I can see him pushing her because of higher ratings a few years ago and positive "fan" feedback when she was actually going to the gym and working with (I don't remember his name) the guy that seemed to actually help her because she had obvious results. I can see Kody coming up with her "supporting others going through the same thing". But...she is obviously not qualified in any way. And she doesn't have the personality to be motivating...her posts come off as whinging and as someone else nailed it....melancholy. Eeyore is a very good nick name. She seems to wallow in her constant daily struggle to just....live. She bounces around with her posts as though she is just posting her own version of something she read online the day before. Today X website is talking about chia. Bam....she's now eating chia. Tomorrow she reads about Kale...bam...kale. etc etc. Nothing really good today, but while packing she stumbles upon that insane assortment of tea boxes and that is the post of the day. WHO buys tea (and THAT much tea) and they don't drink tea!!??
  5. Our little valley had an albino fawn born 2 years ago. He is quite the sight. Even from a distance under the moonlight he has a natural glow to him because of the way his coat reflects the light. I can understand why albino deer have such a mystical past seeing him. However his eyes are not soul searching any human...they are only on the local ladies...
  6. Paedon put in a comment on this post: paedonbrown@jessiemummert I moved to St. George she moved here because she and all my parents wanted a change
  7. When I read the "their homes" part my first assumption was the others were in Las Vegas and Christine was in AZ. They certainly are cryptic!!
  8. The Lehi house sold awhile back in a short sale. Basically selling it for the amount due on the mortgage to keep it from foreclosure. I know people have talked about Meri's Mum, but I'm not sure if it was confirmed she sold her house or not. All in all they have a whole lot tied up in real estate and loans.
  9. Clicked on the link...does that mean that they bought 4 separate properties at $170,000x2, $180,000 and $300,000!!?? With Christines property being the largest and most expensive. Is the sale price or the full cash value the ACTUAL value of the property? I agree that the other wives names on the properties is weird. But this time Kody's name is on all of them instead of just the one he is legally married to at the time.
  10. OMG what did I just watch!!?? I took one for the team... I'm DYING to know. Who is her audience? Who in their right mind (past the old fashioned snark factor we have here) clicks on this as their entertainment? OOOHHHH let's watch Mariah say "like" 47 times while wandering through the grocery store and then she has to unload her groceries and explain each one individually. WHAT the hell is a Jack fruit taco? WHO wants to watch her do squats with music that I believe someone else owns the copyright to. I'm surprised the video isn't pulled for just that alone. AND Kohola3 I can officially inform you that she actually says out loud ""hashtag healthy" at one point while unloading the groceries!
  11. Will Maddie now sell those clothes with a disclaimer "as worn by Gwen and Christine?" ...would that be a plus or a minus for reselling them!!??
  12. Wow. My daughter is 22 years old and I am so very very thankful that she can string together sentences that don't include "like" into each sentence three or four times. I watched the whole thing, I think its interesting that Mariah has her own therapist but I don't understand the statement when she was talking about her eyebrows that she "now uses "x" product for her eyebrows and now they stay on" Are they some artificial thing that is stuck in place!!??
  13. I doubt that Janelle can ever mention Strive. It might seem like a place to get publicity, but it's called advertising and that costs money. The Browns have always spoken very cryptically about their financial ventures. The green drink was called their "marketing business" and Meri's Lulano is her "online clothing business" and Janelle has never made mention of her health coaching in anyway that I can recall, but she did wear a Strive apron on the last season. Robyn's website business is the only one talked about openly and by name that I can remember, I'm sure it's all about legalese etc with the MLM style pyramid businesses or something or they would just turn those hours of telly time into one long Brown infomercial.
  14. While I think her "your body can develop an intolerance" is BS there is real info about dark leafy greens out there. While we are always told to eat more dark leafy greens you can overdo it, especially if you are a person with kidney issues or if you have health issues with medications that are already hard on your kidneys. Both spinach and kale, very popular greens for the smoothie crowd are hard on kidneys, so you should limit them in your diet. While it would probably be hard to overdo kale and spinach in a balanced diet if you are taking large amounts on a daily basis and pureeing them that could possibly be an issue. Moral of the story is still the nutrition information I learned from my Grandmother as a child. Eat seasonally, eat a variety, eat colorful foods, moderation is key.
  15. Bountiful is the sect that would trade young girls as brides with Warren Jeffs group before he went off to prison. To help keep blood lines from mixing too much. Unlike the Kingston group that purposefully mixes close blood lines.
  16. I don't know who chooses the photos to post online but the first photo with Aspyn in the center and Christine left and Mykelti on the right looks like Aspyn is trying to keep her dress from falling down/apart and really....Mykelti looks like the angry evil step sister to her golden hair sister's Cinderella. And it's confusing with the very orangey rust color of Aspyns husband's beard. In the one photo where he is standing facing sideways and you can get an even light on his head hair and his chin hair they are two very different colors. Do men color their beard hair? Or can you have hair color be so very different between head and chin!!?? Everyone has already stated my thoughts on the dresses.....and the hats....I guess Merry ol England was the theme all right.
  17. I can see what you are talking about, I think the sun has caught hair and that is glowing behind her, however I do agree that her neck, when you look very closely could have been slightly reshaped with photoshop. Robyn has always been the more internet aware wife and may realize that her neck bulge that happened during this last pregnancy is being talked about, maybe she tried her hand at reshaping just to stop the chatter.
  18. Wow. I clicked on the view more on instagram click and scrolled through the comments....she has a hard core hater on there. They don't spell very well....but wow....that's some hate.
  19. Huh. It's been an Inn since 1870. Who knew!!??
  20. On Instagram hashtags are how you get your posts seen by others who want to see that subject. Lets say gardening (I use the #gardening on Instagram a lot) If you make a post with no hashtags it will only show up in the home feed of those people who actively follow you and anyone who would go to your channel page directly to look at your channel. However if you want to put your post out into the entire whole of Instagram you use the hashtags. On Facebook you go to a page by a celebrity and put a "like" on it, and in theory (depending on FB algorithms) when that person puts up a post it comes into your feed to see. In Instagram it's all hashtags. I have set up that #gardening posts pop up in my home feed, so anyone using that hashtag has the potential to be seen by anyone interested in gardening posts. If I'm in the mood to just look at pretty garden pictures I will click on the hashtag and just scroll pictures. I have found interesting channels to follow this way as well. I also will search Instagram looking for specific things like organicgardening or dogsinthegarden etc. So when Robyn is using #autismawareness hashtag she is wanting her post to go beyond just her followers out to anyone following that tag or if anyone should search for that tag. It's a way of bringing in new followers as well. They see her post, click her channel and then follow or not. Also, someone within her followers who is just a fan and not aware that autism exists or what it is...they can click on the hashtag (because they are all auto links) and then that will take them to the search for all posts with that hashtag so they can become aware and stuff.
  21. Hhmmm I'm a gardener and those gloves have not seen much work. I can't imagine how many weeds she can possibly have with sand, concrete and rocks making up their landscape. Is Janelle one of the wives that had the green carpet grass laid down? If her gloves are a tool to measure her "exercise" there isn't much going on.
  22. Stumbled on these videos on youtube. While the storytelling is a bit disjointed...it's an interesting listen about the history of Mormonism from an ex-Mormon in two parts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOL19cvcnnQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxWE17ZdoIw
  23. So true! The way she wrote that she makes it look like there is a college daughter and a younger teenage son, then switching to "adult" child. Dayton is the older child, so...is he considered a teen or an adult by his mother? Aurora may be college bound...but not college aged at 16.
  24. Yup. No mention of him...then that weird high five to "Mr. Mom's"!!?? This reads like Mormon Propaganda. All the joy of life is through Motherhood. All the love and affection you need is for and from your children. If you are feeling lonely and unloved or unappreciated then you need to be on your knees finding love from your God and thankful for your children. While the brainwashing is more subtle...it's similar to the bullshit from the CO$.
  25. Kody once said something along the line of for them to have a successful family the wives MUST stay together after the death of the husband. Yet we haven't seen that in any of their parents lives. Kody's mom, who supposedly was the big pusher towards his Dad converting to the Principle, admitted that she didn't welcome or treat Janelle's Mum too kindly...but they all worked it out in the end....or so she says. There was always something about Kody's Mum that never settled with me...she creeps me out. We know that Christine's Mum was one of two wives and left her husband and the religion, so her being on her own is understandable. Meri's Mum is one of five wives. We never hear about the circles of Sister wife joy and Kumbaya love fests from Meri's (I would assume) large family. Any time Meri has mentioned sisters or family she refers to only her part and not the full extended family. Maybe that's wishes from the family themselves...who knows. Robyn has done a lot of hushing on the show. She used to insert her voice into every corner and her kids were put front and center everywhere. I think she is probably the one who reads online the most and after reading the general opinion she pulled her children back and learned somehow to control her public world better. She has mentioned her Mum and we have had the pleasure of watching her mother and step father sit with cameras with a front seat to the births (eye bleach is on the counter over there...) but nothing past general "oh...Mums take on the Grandmother roles after their kids are grown". Well. Yea. What else is there for women in their culture? They are trained from birth that their only worth is in motherhood, so once their children are grown they have no other choice but to continue in their children's lives. Unless they are the favored wife of their husband then they are on the outside looking in. I'm sure that the husband has his preferred wife as he ages and she would be the one that stays close to him. That is a reoccurring theme in various books on the subject that I have read. Just like Christine's Mum had to make her own way...Meri is showing that her only option is to find what she needs outside of the family. She stated that she gets along with her friends just fine. She likes them and they like her, she posts all her happiness and joy with Lularoe groups and she travels all over etc. She is busy trying to be besties with her daughter. She doesn't communicate well with the other wives and they are busy with their lives so I'm sure the less drama and uncomfortable conversations with Meri the better. They really live no different than a basic family unit of close siblings who live nearby and share holidays and get togethers...cousins who grow up with close relationships...but as the years move on they may come and go more often. The only difference is that instead of four close sisters sharing their lives it's one man and many women...bringing very different emotional baggage. Meri needs to wake up and smell the coffee. She gets along with her friends because they aren't in competition for affection and attention from her husband. She can have fun with her friends because they aren't going behind a closed door with her husband that night. Duh Meri.
